Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of medical waste treatment, in particular to a short-flow method for treating medical waste by coupling in-situ pyrolysis incineration and electrocatalytic combustion.
Background
With the development of the age and the development of the society, the scientific management and the safe disposal of medical wastes occupy the important position. According to medical waste management regulations in China, medical waste refers to waste with direct or indirect infectivity, toxicity and other harmfulness generated by medical and health institutions in medical treatment, prevention, health care and other related activities. Medical waste contains a large amount of pathogenic microorganisms, viruses and sharp objects, such as broken glass sheets, waste syringes, disposable surgical knives and the like, and is mainly transmitted through damaged skin, facial intima, respiratory system, digestive system and the like of a human body, and once the human body is contacted carelessly, the human body can be infected or damaged. Meanwhile, medical waste is improperly treated, and water and atmosphere can be polluted in various modes. For example, volatile matters are easy to decompose under the promotion of temperature and moisture in the stacking process of the medical waste, carbon oxides, nitrogen oxides and sulfur-containing gas are released to seriously pollute the environment, and meanwhile, persistent organic pollutants such as dioxin, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon and the like generated in the incineration process of the medical waste can generate great pollution to the atmosphere. Dioxin belongs to typical persistent organic pollutants, has stable properties, is resistant to acid and alkali, photochemical degradation and hydrolysis, can exist in the environment for a long time, can also migrate along with the atmosphere for a long distance, and can be enriched in animals and plants and transferred into human bodies through food intake and other ways after being released into the environment from an emission source, so that great threat is generated to human health.
Today, the treatment methods of medical wastes can be classified into chemical sterilization, microwave treatment, high-pressure steam sterilization, plasma sterilization, pyrolysis incineration, etc., according to the treatment process. Among them, the pyrolysis incineration method is developed most rapidly, and is now internationally recognized as a treatment method of medical wastes by being continuously perfected, and the U.S., japan and the united kingdom are mainly incineration methods. At present, the main treatment technology of medical waste in China is a pyrolysis incineration method. The medical waste incineration equipment is relatively backward in the 70 th and 80 th ages, has high cost, low treatment effect and high human health risk, is greatly limited in application of an incineration method, enters the 21 st century, and on the basis of introducing foreign incineration disposal technology, the research and development investment on the medical waste incineration technology and equipment is increased in China, the gap between the medical waste incineration equipment and the foreign technology is further reduced, and the automation, the purification efficiency and the incineration performance of the incineration equipment are greatly improved.
The flue gas generated by the incineration and pyrolysis of the medical waste contains a certain amount of dust, toxic gases (carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, sulfur dioxide, hydrogen chloride and the like), dioxin substances, heavy metals such as mercury, cadmium, lead and the like, and the flue gas must be purified. The pyrolysis incineration technology is used for medical waste incineration, and has the advantages of effectively reducing the hazardous waste fly ash in the incinerator, controlling pollution of heavy metals and dioxin organic matters in the fly-back, and simultaneously controlling the generation of thermal NO x in the waste.
